You can never really pay back. You can only pay forward.

The bowl games are only supposed to be a fun reward.

You can outwork anybody. Try it, you will find out that you can do it.

We do not pull in and fill up. And I'll tell you why we don't. It's because I don't buy one goddamn drop of gas in the state of Michigan. We'll coast and push this goddamn car to the Ohio line before I give this state a nickel of my money.

You don't get hurt running straight ahead...three-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust offense. I will pound you and pound you until you quit.

The height of human desire is what wins, whether it’s on Normandy Beach or in Ohio Stadium.

The players fire the coach, and as long as I'm on the same wavelength with them, I can coach as long as I want to.
